The only difference between your suggestion and mine is that your code
dynamically loads the DLL at runtime whereas mine statically links to it at
compile-time instead.  Either way, the same DLL is being accessed at runtime
once the functions contained inside of the DLL are actually being called by
the user's code.  It is just a matter of where the function pointers are
coming from.  And since most modern computers have MAPI installed now
anyway, there is little difference between using run-time loading vs.
compile-time linking.  In the older days, MAPI wasn't as readily available,
so run-time loading was used to make sure MAPI was installed first before
trying to use it.  That is not so much the case anymore, unless you're
trying to write programs that have backwards support all the way back to the
earliest of the Windows 95 versions.
